Humana adds new features to AchieveSolutions

LOUISVILLE, Ky. Humana Military Healthcare Services and ValueOptions, Humana’s subcontractor for behavioral health in the southern region, have added new educational features to the AchieveSolutions behavioral health portal.

ValueOptions developed the Web-based portal, which allows beneficiaries in the southern region to seek information, educational materials and self-assessment tools on behavioral health, addiction and recovery, life events and daily living skills.

“As the global war on terror continues and the need for behavioral health resources increases for service members and families, Humana military and our valued partner ValueOptions will be here to meet those needs,” Humana Military president and chief executive officer said. “We are proud to offer the highest quality of resources available to our beneficiaries.”

FDA announces likely delay on Novo Nordisk diabetes drug

WASHINGTON The Food and Drug Administration has announced that it will be unable to meet the user fee deadline for a timely approval of Novo Nordisk’s drug liragludite.

The FDA will not be able to make an approvability decision until March 23 for the drug, a treatment for Type 2 diabetes. Novo Nordisk had submitted an approval application for the drug on May 23.

The standard review period for FDA action on approval applications is 10 months. Because the agency’s advisory committee meeting will take place shortly before March 23, however, its decision will probably be delayed by a further two months, the company said.
